#1580 thanks :)
I got my highest OTB win the other week so I'm getting there hopefully
A General Chess Discussion Thread?
Sort:
I had no idea I was so weak in it
The test at the end of the Yusupov chapter was out of 26 points and I fr got 9 points or smth
Meanwhile, I'm struggling to maintain a 2200 rapid rating lol, I also dropped to 2000 blitz as well, I'm collapsing before my very eyes. I'm deevolving

i think if you locked in this year classical, perhaps with the help of a coach, you'll manage to get CM or def NM
not saying this cuz of experience (i am poor), but i seen alot of people actually managing to do that and i feel you can easily achieve it
I've done 6 tourneys in the last 2 months, I am locking in lol
2000 seems about accurate for now, I don't think I'm underrated
I have a coach and am about to start a new book (just arrived today :D)
Good luck man!
I’m trying to find a way to bongcloud (ke2) Against the Scandinavian while still being playable. Do you guys know any? (By playable I mean not losing TOO much)

I'd recommend playing 2.d4 against the Scandi and transpose into a Blackmar-Diemer Gambit

Actually?!?!
yeye but dont make it too obvious…
My 900th ever game. A couple of stupid misses because I basically premoved a lot of moves but I was winning the entire game anyways. Can't say it was perfect but I played pretty well apart from those misses and I even got what I think was a brilliant knight sac(the computer called it a best move instead but I'm going to annotate it as brilliant so everyone can see).
Obviously I won with the Dutch defense(this was a blitz game)

Nice, what book?
Hellsten - endgame strategy
I was doing a Yusupov book and I got destroyed by an endgame strategy chapter so badly that I got a book on it
